From Churchill to Truss. Want an incredible reign. She was there for so many world events it's almost unbelievable. 

Some people should remember there’s a huge difference between criticising monarchy and deadass mocking/celebrating somebody’s death. That won’t make the world a better place. 

Have some respect and show some human feelings even if her passing changes nothing in your life. 
 

I've always hated what-aboutism. Especially when it comes to death. What are you trying to accomplish?

Y‘all really think you‘re doing something here huh? 
You‘re not edgy, you‘re just embarrassing and undignified. Take your childish behaviour somewhere else.

As someone that’s spent a good chunk of my time in academia focusing on monarchs, this is such a tremendous and somber day. Fair for people not to be fans of her, but Elizabeth II’s legacy and life are incredible. She is probably the last culturally and politically influential monarch of human history (baring a major shift in the world’s political structure) which is insane. 

not liking the joking/lightheartedness of this thread
 
like another person had said, the politics & actions surrounding the monarchy are their own discussion, but it’s very gross to me to make a joke out of somebody’s death, she was a human-being as is the rest of us, it’s just icky to me the way people are going about this… 

honestly we never know in what way she's going in, she post something about country, tell the magazine that the songs are orchestral, mentions that she wants to collab with migos and then post a snippet of a ballad with jon batiste. this woman is fucking crazy (but she's free)

"mascara" new single coming out this friday

I knew it... we fucking lost  (happy for her tho)
Also the fact that that ghostly eerie aesthetic was what I was expecting for Lana... 

a loss for the culture
but on the bight side, we're getting new stuff from Weyes Blood.

we lost at least she looks gorgeous 

Neil posted pics of Weyes Blood omggg that better not be what he was teasing

Waist Deep In Icy Waves out October 1st 

I think we all were very confident that we were getting an album this summer. 
 
Maybe now is a fall or winter release? 

Alright. We were down for about an hour and I’m going to explain why.
 
As I was just beginning to fall asleep two hours ago at 2am, I received a phone call from an unknown number and groggily answered it. It was someone who identified themselves as Bridgette, asking for the owner of LanaBoards.
Confused and taken aback and also half asleep, I just nervously laugh and ask what this person needs. They hang up.
They then text me saying that they are a social media analyst for TAP Management, Lana’s management, essentially informing me that Ben was in talks of having the site shut down for recent leaks, discussion, etc. Saying that this was Lana’s personal request.
For over an hour and a half, this person proceeded to fill me with stress and anxiety through text message regarding this “issue” with the site and not answering my calls saying that Ben would be reaching out to me personally tomorrow to speak further.
Though I was initially skeptical that this was a prank after they called asking for the LanaBoards owner due to the suspicious number (I even texted my personal best friend who knows I run this site and is infamous for her prank calls that don’t typically target me who confirmed she wasn’t behind this), the gravity and severity of the situation that they informed me of once they texted me after they hung up lead me to treat this as a better safe than sorry situation. When I asked how they received my number as Lana’s management doesn’t have my current number as it’s changed since I last spoke with one of her managers years back, they said that Lana herself provided a list of fans they thought may have managed the site, and they listed my ex-girlfriend of 3 years ago who is a fellow prominent Lana fan in the community as someone they reached out to that eventually put them in contact with me. (Note, I have no idea if she’s actually involved with this and highly doubt that she is as it would be very out of character given how we left things at the end several years ago, but that only added to my concern as well as my suspicion.)
Everything that they asked of me I immediately cooperated with, including temporarily pulling the site.
Then, after an hour and a half of this anxiety inducing madness, they tell me this is a prank. They then identify as someone named Dez.
This was not funny.
It was very immature and inappropriate for someone to call me posing as a member of Lana’s management asking about LanaBoards at 2am on a Monday morning ahead of a very busy workweek for me as I’m spending the next 5 days working 14 hour days on set.
 
I am posting this here to just say, if this is someone from the site, do not ever do this again. I would also appreciate if you could please reveal yourself and how you got my number, as I’m really concerned about how LanaBoards members/Lana fans are receiving my personal cell phone number that they feel free to call to harass me for a prank at 2am.
If you are someone who has my phone number, which I know is a couple of you here, please do not give it out without my permission.
I keep a relatively small personal circle, and whoever is behind this has relative knowledge of my life regarding the fact I own this site and the name of my ex-girlfriend that I haven’t spoken to in years. This just grows my concern of my number and personal details being passed around.
 
If there ever is a serious issue regarding the site, LanaBoards has a contact email and social media pages that work just as well.
& if you’re going to prank me like this, choose a better time.
 
Thanks x
 

 

 

Rockafella my umbrella… 

Thank God we stan Lana who won't keep her thoughts inside her head 

imagine waiting for an album for years like most other fanbases do 

increasingly thinking this album is going to cause a major shift in the music industry and usher in a whole new sound like she did when she debuted

Earlier today, Lana Del Rey attended the Malibu Chili Cook-Off festival in Malibu, California.
She attended the event with her siblings Chuck and Charlie Grant, her father Rob Grant, and friends Sveta Matiunina, Hunter Barker, Jen Stith, and Evan Winiker. While there, she stopped to take pictures with fans.
